She urges him to keep quiet about what he saw the night Helena fell off the cliff. She tells him that Helena attempted to kill her and if Nicolas had not thrown her off the cliff, she would have succeeded. But she can tell that Connor is unconscious and unable to hear her. Outside, Lucky tells her shes making futile efforts and even if Connor could hear her, he would not do as she asks, hes bitter and revenge is all he has.

She seems to really appreciate that and is no longer angry with him.

Sam says she knows Sonny and Alexis are talking right now about her refusal to have the procedure and that Alexis must hate her. He tells her that Alexis is simply putting her child first, just like she is.

Sonny informs Alexis that he could not force Sam to put the baby at risk. She asks if he couldnt or if he wouldnt. He tells her that it was Sams choice. She tells him that it must not be very important to him that Christina is going to die.

She protests to Sonny that she would do that if she were in Sams situation. He tells her that Sam must be able to make her own decision. At that moment, Alexis lashes out and hysterically tells Sonny that he needs to make Sam agree to help Christina.

Sonny protests that Sam made the decision that was best for her child. But Alexis will not accept that and says that if Sam does not agree to this, Christina will die.

Luke urges Justus to loan him the money to buy Lorenzo out. Justus says he cannot do that in order to help Luke in his crazy plan. Faith protests that that is the only way to keep her out of prison. At that moment, Justus agrees. Faith puts her arms around Luke, thanking him for helping her and she runs off with Justus.

Sam says she cannot take a 10 percent chance. Alexis asks Sam to think of how she would feel if after her baby was born and she was able to save a life but knows she did not.
